Lucy’s average day sounds so much like mine! I suspect most of us are suffering in silence. I myself am looking at anyway possible to drop a day at my practice and do locums just to survive!
I have no quality of life.

How can you control workload if the GP recruitment crisis leaves you covering the work of absent colleagues due to unfilled GP partner or salaried postitions? On my last day as a partner I was doing the work of three GPs. The survey will presumably show that any variance in activity will be highest in under doctored areas.
